Every Time I Die - After One Quarter of a Revolution lyrics

rate me

<br />

Cleaned up the mess I'm in, now I am born again.<br />

Naked, spotless motion without strings.<br />

I've flushed the filth to sea, the limbs and sharp debris but if that water rises woe is me.<br />

Hearts aren't beating they're counting down.<br />

Breaths aren't stolen they're groomed and given out.<br />

The closet is teeming with broken bones.<br />

I'll be driven out and swallowed whole.<br />

I walk a crooked mile with the devil on my back puppeteering, schemes with every step.<br />

But I once could walk through walls and drift above it all, pursuing endless love to endless depths.<br />

Hearts aren't beating they're counting down.<br />

Breaths aren't stolen they're groomed and given out. <br />

The closet is teeming with broken bones. <br />

I'll be driven out and swallowed whole.<br />

Object all you want but I am not done with you.<br />

Lives will be lost.<br />

Children will grieve.<br />

Entire nations will crumble and blood will run deep, but we will be redeemed. <br />

You and I will be weightless. <br />

We'll stay unborn so death can't start the clock and love can seep through our pores.
